Notes from Meeting

• The meeting minutes from previous SIG meeting were approved

• Formal congratulations for Elspeth for being voted as co-lead with Arthur

• James to give the highlights of OSSF New York

  • InnerSource was represented there but not the IS SIG with the travel restrictions between US and Canada and UK (e.g. CapitalOne)
  • Where people were talking about maturity for OS, IS was present in some shape or form.
  • IS appeared as InnerSource as well as open source internally
  • People saying that they want to get more involved ISC or find a community that is relevant. James managed to promote the FINOS SIG in this context
  • IS is often described as the first step towards open source
  • Maturity matrix is very valuable in that sense because it will show a company where they are in their path towards open source

• The State of Open Source in Financial services is available for download and the data is available as open source:

  • https://www.finos.org/state-of-open-source-in-financial-services-2021
  • Youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwknmDB3cgg
  • Notes:
    • need for more clarity on the similarities and differences between InnerSource and open source.
    • IS is driven from the executive level

• Maturity Matrix Update

  • No dependency on Arthur’s work
  • Arthur researched Pendoc to see if it could work. Nothing definitive yet but it would be good to rule it out before moving on to manual transfer.
  • The Markdown File was created here: https://github.com/finos/InnerSource/tree/master/docs/maturity-matrix
  • The Matrix will be represented in a document style

• Discussion of focus for 2022

  • Make this community more collaborative and encourage more regular contributions
  • Help make clear the similarities and differences between open source and InnerSource and educate.
  • Case study template - where and how people are using InnerSource - aim to document where people are doing IS and the reasons they are doing it
  • Help people when they are using contractors for IS

• Feb 2nd, 2022 - FINOS Community call inviting projects in SIGs to represent themselves.
